Check the starter slave relay. On my Bullet mine is mounted by the plug in connector, under that plate.

My guess is it is the neutral safety switch. Move the shifter back and forth and find the right spot. Oh and by chance someone didn't hit the breaker switch on the wall on your left going in to the cabin did they? If so push to the up position and fire it up.

Make sure you did not tighten the clamps on the Merc plugs to tight. I have seen where the pins will not moake good contact if the plug is too tight. Also check to make sure the starter wiring is correct. Jumper Wire.

you have checked the most likely. its always something stupid, my quess the relays mine are mounted above fuel pump, are not grounding besause you painted everything.the relays take power from rocker swith , rocker switch does not go direct to starter selonoid. only fuses I know of are in the little door under the steering wheel

Double check the wires on the starter.
